Victorian Carved Opal Buddha Pendant cat's eye Internal circumference: adjustable from 6DATE: Victorian, c. 1900 An incredible antique Buddha pendant dating from the late Victorian period, circa 1900.

The stone is mounted in 18 karat gold, with platinum bezel set diamonds set around it and in the bail. STONES Opal & Diamond
